Hot Off the Press: Volume XV of the International Journal of Blockchain Law (IJBL)

Written and edited by lawyers, GBBC’s International Journal of Blockchain Law (IJBL) is designed to help interested business and non-legal communities better understand the regulatory world of blockchain and digital assets.

Released today, Volume XV highlights emerging legal, regulatory, and technological developments shaping blockchain and digital assets across the United States, Türkiye, and global financial markets. This edition features analysis of decentralized identity infrastructure for DeFi, sanctions and cybersecurity risks at the intersection of crypto and agentic AI, proposed taxation of crypto assets and CASPs under Turkish law, and Wyoming’s pioneering public stablecoin issuer model.

Additionally, this volume recaps GBBC and Norton Rose Fulbright’s 2026 Future of Finance Conference, exploring the evolving role of stablecoins and tokenized deposits, institutional settlement infrastructure, digital asset custody, and AI agents capable of moving money.
